Questions about communal fire doors in Long Eaton
Can you work around tenants or staff in Long Eaton?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
Which rules do communal fire doors in Long Eaton need to meet?
They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Is the survey in Long Eaton free?

Should communal doors be glazed?
Doors across corridors usually need vision panels so people can see who is on the other side. The glass must be tested in that doorset.
